May I put my nomination in for "poor saps"? Or perhaps no name at all. You're apt to get a lot of [unqualified] people interested in such a position (even if it is strictly OOC for administration purposes) by giving it a more regal title than it really deserves for what I once called "the perceived status factor."
The rest of it I like, and I see your point more clearly now Solana, and I agree. Thank you for the clarification.
I also agree that the "RPer Profile" idea brought forth by Tsumi and think that would be an excellent addition to these forums.
I also agree 110% with Verence's post and have witnessed this firsthand a few dozen times. The RPC should not be responsible for personal conflicts. The involved individuals should work it out themselves, or take it to their guild leadership if no compromise can be made (and even then there's often only limited action that guild leadership may take). The only time the RPC could be brought into it would be if it comes to the point where one of the individuals chooses to seek a new guild, at which point recommendations may be made and the RPC could give the RPer a perspective on the other guilds that are available.
As long as I'm agreeing with everyone else, I may as well agree with Mason as well. If someone is that burdened by a grudge, they shouldn't interact with the target of their enmity. I'm sure there's a couple people that don't like me and that's cool. I've mostly let go my past grudges, but I can understand there might be some very legitimate reasons for animosity between RPers, whether of the same guild or different guilds. It just makes sense to avoid these types of scenes if it's just going to explode into a dramabomb. Mason's final statement put it best - everyone's just trying to have fun.
